Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to participate in this Special Issue of JCM entitled “Mitral and Tricuspid Valve Disease and Imaging Techniques—2nd Edition”.
In recent years, several new therapeutic options have been proposed for the treatment of mitral and tricuspid valve disease, including minimally invasive cardiac surgery and structural interventional cardiology. At the same time, new echocardiographic techniques, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging have made significant advances in the diagnosis of valvular heart disease. Nevertheless, it remains a challenge to detect valvular heart disease early, to choose the right and timely intervention, and finally to find an appropriate imaging protocol for each approach in order to determine anatomical feasibility and predict the success of the intervention. With this in mind, rigorous patient selection, access to advanced surgical techniques, availability of safe and effective transcatheter devices and a careful research approach are critical to align these developments with the unmet clinical needs of patients.
The current Special Issue aims to provide the readers with an updated overview of the latest discoveries and new findings, analysis of previously published data, and new opinions and perspectives on imaging techniques for mitral and tricuspid valve disease.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Clinical Medicine is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
